How to beat/farm Yami Marik (part 2) lvl50

Starting now (15th december) Yami Marik lvl 50 will start appearing in Duel World (DM). He will not appear at the gate, but appear in the overworld, just like Arkana, The Rare Hunter and Yami Marik did before.

Once you beat Yami Marik lvl 50, you will receive one copy of The Winged Dragon of Ra, there will be no need to farm him and rely on luck to get your copy (The victory rewards from lvl 50 are the same as lvl 40). But if you fail to beat Yami Marik you might have to wait a few hours before getting another shot at him (assuming his spawn will work the same way Arkana and the Rare hunter did in the overworld, otherwise you might be able to speed up his spawn rate by gaining event points).

Yami Marik lvl 50 will have the skill “Incarnation of The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode”. This skill allows Yami Marik to start out with a copy of “The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode” on his side of the field. What this means is that he can immediately bring out his Winged Dragon of Ra with 4000 atk and 4000 def at the start of the duel (without paying any life points), which makes it a very powerful skill. Because Yami Marik will still have all his life points when he brings out Ra, it’s very likely he’ll use Ra’s effect (by paying 1000 life points) to destroy your monsters. (Marik won’t be able to raise Ra’s attack past 4000 by paying life points because that effect can only be activated when he is normal summoned)

Although you can’t attack The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere mode or target it with effects, you can target The Winged Dragon of Ra with card effects. This means you’ll have to fill your deck with enough powerful cards to have a good chance that you have some way to deal with Ra in your opening hand. (note: although Ra’s effect says “When Normal Summoned, other cards and effects cannot be activated.” this effect is over as soon as Ra is summoned, AND in the case of Sphere Mode, Ra is special summoned and not normal summoned)

• For most of the duel you will be playing with no monsters on the field.
• Use Temple of the Mind's Eye as soon as you get it, making all damage done to you 1000. Planet Pathfinder can be used to search out Temple of the Mind's Eye.
• Every Trap card in this deck will help you stall the duel.
• Use Windstorm of Etaqua or Curse of Anubis to defend against multiple monster attacks.
• Draining Shield can to stop any attack and heal you a good amount. It is best used when Marik attacks with The Winged Dragon of Ra to heal 4000LP.
• Use Floodgate Trap Hole on any monster Marik summons except The Winged Dragon of Ra. Since Marik does not have any to get rid of his own monsters, this can be used to clog his monster zones.
• It is important that you use Floodgate Trap Hole when Marik summons Bowganian or else he can burn you till you lose.
• Use Massivemorph on The Winged Dragon of Ra so that he cannot attack you directly. Make sure you use at least 2 Massivemorph on him before you take him on your final turn.
• If you have an extra Massivemorph before your final turn you can use it on any other monster Marik controls.
• On your final turn, summon Gravekeeper's Vassal then special summon Caligo Claw Crow. Use Enemy Controller to tribute Caligo Claw Crow and take Marik's The Winged Dragon of Ra. Use Secret Pass to the Treasures and Union Attack on Gravekeeper's Vassal then direct attack for 9999+ damage.
